I have installed a Win2008 64-bit Standard server and it seems that I have
lost 5 GB.

I have created a C vol that is 20 GB. My install takes about 5.5 GB and my
pagefile is 2 GB. That means I should have about 13 GB free. I don't. I
only have 8 GBs free.

I have already unchecked the box to hide hidden and system files. I have
deleted the hiber.fil.

I can not find the 5 GB and it is making me crazy.

Any ideas?

Did you take a look at the uninstall files from the updates in the windows
directory?

This might account for some of the used sapce.
